...Egypt, and last week the time was right. It did not matter that for weeks there had been comparative quiet on the Egyptian border (Nasser was too busy with the Suez crisis) nor that Egypt did not even have its usual strong Jorces on the frontier. After the big push began, Israel justified its attack by saying that it had arrested three Egyptian-trained fedayeen (self-sacrificers) units that had penetrated into Israel.

...Crimson trailed, 2 to 0, before its attack was fully organized, and subsequently dominated in the contest. Magowan managed to push across his goal in the third period, but otherwise the Crimson shooting was ineffective despite major improvement in passing...
